@nogusta ah man, that would have been 5pts for the Blues.
Still will be?
Nah it would be split points
Depends what they decide, I've not seen any rules yet. It would just be like SANZAAR to leave it until too late to make these decisions. It is the sort of thing that should be out there already, after engaging with stakeholders before one of those stakeholders has a vested covid positive interest in the result

This from the Herald says that the Blues, Chiefs and Highlanders will play a 3 half game this weekend should MP be isolated.
- Should Moana Pasifika's preseason match against the Highlanders be scrapped Lendrum indicated the other teams would engage in a game of three halves to ensure they had a hit out.
"At this stage, whilst not confirmed, there is a distinct possibility Moana Pasifika may not be able to participate in the final weekend of preseason and we'll adjust the scheduling if that's the scenario we have to work with.

This would suck
Australian and New Zealand rugby officials are mulling a rule change to allow Super Rugby games to start with uncontested scrums in the event of a Covid-19 outbreak this season. .... Safety considerations mean props will undergo extra training and monitoring to make sure they are up to Super Rugby standard, but officials may also ask World Rugby to allow games to start with uncontested scrums in the event a team cannot field enough props to contest the set piece.
I like watching league, but not when I’m expecting rugby. This is a stink idea.

Positive 🤦♂️
So was that for members of the Moana Pasifika team? I havent been following the news on it but Ofa was the blues player as his brother tested positive.
And didnt MP play the chiefs last weekend in a preseason? Surely that also creates an issue unless timing is favourable

Sounds like the opening match between the Blues and MP has been postponed.
Edit: Nope ignore me, one line in there saying postponed. But that looks like guessing rather than official
It's postponed.
